This kind of misinformation from reps at these vendors sure make it hard to sell mainframe Linux as a solution internally. Simple statements like these to the wrong people are nearly irreversibly damaging. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Carroll Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2008 3:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: That sounds like a seriously misinformed person.

This strikes me as odd, considering that Oracle is encouraging their z/OS customers to move to mainframe Linux. Does Oracle expect them to run Linux in an LPAR, or run unsupported under z/VM? Or is this guy all wet?
